Get together with colleagues

Meet colleagues from around the world during our two day conference and an additonal study day. Whether it’s during a dinner or a coffee break, you can exchange ideas and experiences on several occasions. Are you an IATM member? Then, our “News from the field” section during the General Assembly is always a great chance to share anything from pressing issues to success stories.

Explore Belfast and Northern Ireland

Be inspired by the city of Belfast. Especially, the role of its cultural institutions in turning it from a symbol of conflict into a cultural and economic hub. We are very excited that the Ulster Museum, Ulster Transport Museum and Titanic Belfast will open their doors for you. Special locations such as the Crumlin Road Gaol round out our event with a unique atmosphere. Additionally, you can get to know the Downpatrick and County Down Railway, the Ulster Aviation Society, or get aboard the National Museums of the Royal Navy’s HMS Caroline during our study day. Prior to the conference, the European Heritage Open Days await with a vast programme.
